started off with a good brunch to say adios to craig from uk gimme5/bape and hello to cool calm. since i'm nursing a broken back, a kids pool, water ballons, pain killers and beer are the perfect medicine. ishy and i had a face off. i think he won.

met up with sung for some lunch and shoe talk-clae ofcourse! fun and on point gems to come from us in the future. we biked through the streetwear mall, which is always a cougar jamrock for me. i mean fun, yes, its always fun! i escaped with the same stickers i rode in with.

crushing majorly on fops and dandies. things i love; when you take it there, when you dress up everyday because it makes you happy, you desire it so you search till you find then share, and all done with major cuteness. these qualities are found on fopsanddandies.blogspot.com. this isn't a circle jerk big up. i don't know the f+p crew. just think its something good for inspiration.

i didn't know what to expect at el cid, but the guys killed it. i think you may have a new groupie on your hands sir platt. the magic man shocked us with his hello kitty cards and illusionist like tricks. i wanted to bust him, but he kept getting me with that choose a card trick. his sequined shirt was made by little fairies and elves on e, so how can you be mean to magic man.

while cruising abbot kinney with j, we stopped into the man's man store Stronghold. william who works for the denim line which dates back to 1895 schooled us on worker man jeans, rivets and secret pockets. he also showed us a pair which date back to the early 1900's, most likely used as a rag in the mines.did you know that most used/vintage denim is found in floor boards of barns and homes? best insulation ever! if you're on the west side stop in and take a look around. they've got some good things in there. you can get custom jeans. booty shorts, or floods. choose your own adventure. thestrongholdla.com
